These days when a retail game comes out for twenty dollars, odds are it is not a good game. Deadly Premonition is a diamond in the rough, it may look like shit but man it is a great game. You play as Francis York Morgan but you can call him york because everyone does. He is on the FBI and on his way to Greenville for a lead to a murder case he is on. Greenville is a small town and this help with the game because someone in the town is the murderer. What makes this game so great and also great but this happening in a small town is that everyone in the game has a unique personal and most of the people in the game have very deep back stories. The story in the game does take a few turns at the end to the weird side but it is a great story. Voice acting is also great, no one sounds dull or life less while they talk. This game is a japanese game that was ported to the US and there are no signs of if, while driving to point to point York talks about 80's movies and a little bit of punk rock talk.
        As I already said the graphs are not worst, man problem with the graphs is that textures looks blurry and pixel. The music in the game is great but at times doesn't go with mood the game is in. It is amazing that the game is open world, beside the main mission there are side missions to do, store to buy food, guns, health. and gas. Also amazing that York needs to eat and sleep in the game, also that the cars can run out of gas. The enemies in the game are all the same, white pail zombie people. There is also a huge dog but that only shows up late night in the rain, I didn't try to attack it. Over all this game has a lot to offer for a twenty-dollar game. I was I didnt act like a cheap skate and get it. If you can find this  pick it up.
